About this award
This is a $124,290.00 Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Program Phase I contract awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to Hypersciences, Inc., a for-profit organization. The contract is for the development of a robust, cost-effective, and automated hypersonic launch system and encapsulated projectile bus capable of delivering small payloads to altitudes up to 100 km. The system leverages Hypersciences' patented ram accelerator-based launch architecture and an in-ground launch site at Spaceport America to provide low-cost, on-demand access to high altitude and space. The contract has a completion date of February 15, 2019.
Description
Hypersciences, INC. Is proposing is a robust, cost effective, automated hypersonic launch system and encapsulated projectile bus capable of delivering small payloads to altitudes as high as 100KM. Hypersciences uses our proven, existing and patented RAM accelerator-based launch architecture and in-ground launch site based at spaceport america to launch payloads at greater than mach 5. This cost-effective launch vehicle enables cheap access to high altitude and space, providing on-demand launches. One novel feature of the RAM accelerator is a fully tailorable g-load profile with length and simple gas propellant selection. Because of the loads experienced during launch minor g-load toughening of existing payloads are only required, as a result a new class of tough, low-cost payloads will emerge to be able to be flown on this system. The reduction of cost and the ability to have on demand launch services will further strengthen and accelerate the developing small satellite and hypersonic test vehicle market. Some of the key innovations in this technology which allow the impulsive launch are: automated hypersonic testing platform for stage 1 launch replacement and hypersonic testing heat resistant aero shell to help protect payload and upper stages extendable features to allow for stable flight throughout launch EGG carton technology to help share acceleration load throughout the structure
